Rock-Solid Performance & Features – Highly Recommended!
The ASRock B650 Steel Legend WiFi 6E is an amazing motherboard! The build quality is solid, the design looks fantastic, and it runs Ryzen 7000 series CPUs smoothly. Setup was easy, and the BIOS is user-friendly, making overclocking a breeze. The WiFi 6E and 2.5Gb LAN provide super-fast connectivity, and the DDR5 & PCIe 4.0 support ensure top-tier performance. It stays cool even under heavy loads, and everything works flawlessly. If you’re building an AM5 system, this board is an excellent choice. Highly recommended!

Great Value
3 mos with the b650 Steel Legend wifi and no issues with a 7600x, 4070S and 64gb corsair vengeance 6000. Less than 10 seconds to boot. Easy install if you know what you're doing, but the directions aren't the best.

One of the best deals on an AM5 motherboard you will find
This board was everything I wanted and then some. It is the only B650 board that I am aware of that also has PCIE x16 gen 5 for GPU's. You normally will only find that on B650E boards. If you are going for a white AM5 build, I highly recommend the B650 Steel Legend Wifi.I'm not a huge fan of ASRock Polychrome for controlling RGB, but OpenRGB works flawlessly with it. Also, a good amount of PCIE lanes and NVME slots. Very easy to build with. Looks absolutely incredible as well. Plenty of IO options as well.A great board at a great price!

Great for Mini Atx Builds
For the price, this motherboard is pretty awesome. It's small but packed with features like WiFi 6E, DDR5 support, and even an M.2 slot with a heatsink. My only issue is the fan connectors—there are only three 4-pin ones. That means you can hook up one CPU fan or AIO and only two extra case fans. So, depending on your case, you might have to be strategic about fan placement to get the best airflow. Otherwise, you’ll need a 4-pin fan splitter, which can mess with your cable management. Overall, though, it’s a great motherboard for the price!

When a man gets exactly what he wants.
Everything I need (and then some). Works like a dream, and looks like a dream too.

Update: No Video Output from PCIe Video Slot
This replaced an FX board in my HTPC. Works flawlessly. Can't say that about windows 11, but after 2 reinstalls of windows 11 it's behaving now. Only gripe I have is the memory slots with the single end retainer. I found it difficult to remove and reseat with the limited space in the case. Either the new memory or the slots needed a cleaning with contact cleaner to work properly.Update: 3 months after purchase.Used a 8600G cpu with on board graphics. Noted after a while that there where 5x beep codes and extended boot time during some boots from cold system. System worked great otherwise. It was nuisance so I contacted email support. After trouble shooting as directed, found that there was no video signal from any card put into PCIe slot.( Might want to try a video card even if you're using on chip video as defect check.) So it is a defective board that needs warranty replacement. Now I have entered the rma process. Awaiting a approval to ship the defective board to Asrock at my expense. The defective board is better than the rma terms. Essentially, after it is shipped to them they only have to replace it if they feel like it. After reading the 2 pages of what I am required to do to submit an acceptable return, I must say it is the most onerous one-sided process I have ever encountered. That's saying something since I am 66 years old and have a lifetime of purchasing tools, equipment and supplies behind me. Just 3 of the things in the 2 pages of rma terms that come to mind. Can't send it back in the original box. I must tape something described as "the above" to the outside of the return box. If taken literally, I need to tape several pages of text to the box. Otherwise it's not clear what it means. If there is any problem at all with the replacement board I have 48 hours to let them know. There are another 15 to 20 conditions to be met like no cross-shipping. Just have to wait a few weeks. For a $100 board, even if I get a replacement, I'm not sure I want to use it. Wish I had gotten a gigabyte or a biostar. Never had a problem with them. This is my first/last Asrock. Already have warranty replaced 2 Asus boards in the past. The only 3 boards I have ever found to be defective. Asus/Asrock are the same manufacturer last time I checked. Yep, that's strike 3. And another thing, The percentage of 1 star reviews was much lower when I purchased this board.
